STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擯romoting public awareness and healing for those affected by violence, the Clothesline Project returns this week to Mississippi State.

During the free 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday-Thursday [Sept. 13-15] event, university students, faculty and staff will be encouraged to create designs for shirts to be displayed with others on a Drill Field clothesline.

Sponsored annually by MSU鈥檚 Department of Health Promotion and Wellness, the campus program is part of a national effort to aid the healing process for survivors of violence. Educating, raising awareness and providing a network of support, encouragement and information are other major goals. For more, see .

Each day, participants will have an opportunity to produce a shirt design that reflects personal experiences with violence, or as a way to honor a friend or loved one affected by violence.

The available colors are meant to represent different types of violent acts. They include:

鈥擸ellow, representing physical acts such as battery, assault or other intimate partner violence;

鈥擱ed, pink or orange, violence of rape or sexual assault;

鈥擶hite, the memory of those that have lost their lives to violence;

鈥擝lue or green, violence of incest or child abuse;

鈥擯urple, violence associated with sexual orientation;

鈥擝lack, violence associated with political injustice; and

鈥擥ray, a new category added this year to represent cyber violence.
